Gently viscous; pale gold in colour mixed with straw and hay hues. Bright. Minerals, lemon meringue, custard, wet river pebbles, newly-baled straw, marzipan, white stone fruits… The aromaticity and the bouquet are complex, deeply engaging, and beguiling. Acidity and length, put simply.

Yet around and within that there are nectarine and white peach flavours, and Royal Gala apple skin crunch and grip, particularly at the front palate. Mid palate is all stone fruits followed by a loooooong finish, with searing and puckering acidity lingering and drawing out the texture and flavour of the wine in a sustained, tailing, over-the-horizon manner.

Description

“All wines come in at the mouth, and all love comes in at the eye; that’s all we shall know for truth before we grow old and die.”
WB Yeats

Heirloom Vineyards was conceived in vintage 2000, when a young winemaking student caught the eye of a silly old wine judge. A love story ensued inspired by two vows: To preserve the best of tradition, the old world of wine and our unique old vineyards and to champion the best clones of each variety planted in the most appropriate sites embracing the principals of organic farming.

Seven long vintages of trial and error passed before Heirloom Vineyards could make a wine that was fine enough to pass on to future generations. That is this wine.
